Comments: Dear Abby, I am amazed by you, and amazed at what a wonderful and devoted family you have. I am inspired by reading the information about you and your therapies that your mother has provided on this website. Although her first priority is obviously YOU, she has somehow made time in her demanding schedule in order to share her knowledge and experiences with others who are seeking help and answer…(trimmed)

He’s anointed us, gives us good news, he sends us to bind up the brokenhearted. proclaim liberty to captives.To comfort, to give a garland instead of ashes, oil of gladness, mantle of praise….so you and I will be called oaks of righteousness, that he may be glorified.

Comments: Oh Tiffany, my heart understands what you are sharing and aches for what might have been. I will pray Abbie’s GI doc has some good ideas. “He is your constant source of stability; He abundantly provides safety and great wisdom; He gives all this to those who fear Him.” Isaiah 33:6 NET Love, Karen

Comments: Ray & Tiffany, Suzette keeps me updated on Abby’s progress. You two are such an inspiration and all who have come to know you are blessed for that friendship. We will keep Abby in our prayers. Austin

Comments: Dear Tiffany, I have been praying for all of you since Abby’s accident. I was sorry to hear about her leg fractures. Please ask your doctor if a bone stimulator would help. It helps fractures to grow more bone faster-maybe it will help her leg bones get stronger. In Christ, Natalie Garrett

Comments: God Bless you Guys…. It’s so tempting to want to run away. We can run to God…that’s the safest place….I just wish he were more visable….but if we are going to have faith as Mustard seed that we have to believe not with our eyes and our ears. We have to believe with what Gods word says to us. He promised he would never leave us or forsake us. We will never be victors without opponents. …(trimmed)

God led to pray for Abbie right now, out of the blue, and then to His word to find you these messages: Romans 8:28 Psalm 4:3 Isaiah 51:12 Please let me know how these speak to you. Many Blessings, John (&Donna&Sarah) PS Please let Abbie know I can’t wait to see and hold her again!
